Tools and Images to Build a Raspberry Pi n8n server
The purpose of this project is to create a Raspberry Pi image preconfigured with n8n so that it runs out of the box.
n8n is a no-code/low code environment used to connect and automate different systems and services. It is programmed using a series of connected nodes that receive, transform, and then transmit date from and to other nodes. Each node represents a service or system allowing these different entities to interact. All of this is done using a WebUI.
Whevever a new technology is released, two common barriers often prevent potential users from trying out the technology:
- System costs
- Installation & configuration challenges
The n8n-pi project eliminates these two roadblocks by preconfiguring a working system that runs on easily available, low cost hardware. For as little as $40 and a few minutes, they can have a full n8n system up and running.
This project would not be possible if it was not for the help of the following:
